Captain Planet Movie On The Way At Sony

Mmm... that chiseled chin
With our powers combined, we finally have good news about our favourite green-haired eco-warrior. The folks over at Sony have announced that a film adaption of the 90's animated series Captain Planet and the Planeteers. The series focused on a group of teenagers from around the world who are chosen by Gaia to defend the earth from pollution etc. When the problem is too big for them to handle, they combine their powers and call upon Captain Planet, a superpowered elemental warrior who uses the powers of Fire, Water, Earth, Air and Heart to defeat the villains.

I do like Captain Planet, and the series was well done. With voice of Whoopi Goldberg as Gaia, and a special appearance by Neil Patrick Harris in one epsiode, the series was extremely popular around the world. Though we have seen sort of a sneak peek when Don Cheadle played Captain Planet in a Funny Or Die sketch, we haven't really had any live-action adaption. I hope Sony does this well.
